gdb/testsuite: update a pattern in gdb_file_cmd

WARNING: Couldn't test self
It is the fact that when I use the previously mentioned CFLAGS and
CXXFLAGS as part of the configuration line, the default value (-O2 -g)
is overridden, then GDB has no debug information. When there's no debug
information, GDB should not run the testcase in selftest.exp.
The root cause of this FAIL is that the $gdb_file_cmd_debug_info didn't
get the right value ("nodebug") during the gdb_file_cmd procedure.

gdb: skip objfiles with no BFD in DWARF unwinder
While playing with JIT reader I experienced GDB to crash on null-pointer
dereference when stepping through non-jitted code.
The problem was that dwarf2_frame_find_fde () assumed that all objfiles
have BFD but that's not always true. To address this problem, this
commit skips such objfiles.
To test the fix we put breakpoint in jit_function_add (). The JIT reader
does not know how unwind this function so unwinding eventually falls
back to DWARF unwinder which in turn iterates over objfiles. Since the
the code is jitted, it is guaranteed it would eventually process JIT
objfile.

a few insns later than the passing scenario.
For contrast, if we do the same on powerpc64le, the failure mode is:
...
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/longjmp.exp: next to longjmp (1)

Here we only stop because of running into the safety net breakpoint at
miss_step_1.
So, how does this happen on x86_64? Let's look at the code:
...
4005c7: e8 94 fe ff ff call 400460 <_setjmp@plt>
4005cc: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax
4005ce: 75 1e jne 4005ee <main+0x3b>

4005ee: 8b 05 74 0a 20 00 mov 0x200a74(%rip),%eax # 601068 <resumes>
...
The next over the longjmp call at 4005e9 is supposed to stop at the longjmp
target at 4005cc, but instead we stop at 4005ee, where we have the step-resume
breakpoint inserted by the next. In other words, we accidentally "return"
from the longjmp call to the insn immediately after it (even though
a longjmp is a noreturn function).
Try to avoid this accident and make the failure mode on x86_64 the same as on
powerpc64le, by switching the then and else branch.
This is not modelled quite right in riscv_dwarf_reg_to_regnum, the
DWARF register numbers 31 and 63 are not handled correctly due to a
use of '<' instead of '<='. This commit fixes this issue.

The UNRESOLVED for arrayptr.exp is fine, as GDB crashes in that test,
while trying to run to main. However, the UNRESOLVED in assign_1.exp
doesn't make sense, GDB behaves as expected in that test:
(gdb) set lang ada^M

print $xxx := 1^M
$1 = 1^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.ada/assign_1.exp: set convenience variable $xxx to 1
The problem is that arrayptr.exp calls perror when failing to run to
main, then returns. perror makes it so that the next test (as in
pass/fail) will be recorded as UNRESOLVED. However, here, the next test
(as in pass/fail) is in the next test (as in .exp). Hence the spurious
UNRESOLVED in assign_1.exp.
These perror when failing to run to X are not really useful, especially
since runto records a FAIL on error, by default. Remove all the
perrors on runto failure I could find.
When there wasn't one already, add a return statement when failing to
run, to avoid running the test of the test unnecessarily.
I thought of adding a check ran between test (in gdb_finish
probably) where we would emit a warning if errcnt > 0, meaning a test
quit and left a perror "active". However, reading that variable would
poke into the DejaGNU internals, not sure it's a good idea.

PowerPC, fix gdb.reverse/finish-reverse-bkpt.exp and gdb.reverse/next-reverse-bkpt-over-sr.exp
The tests set a break point with the command break *func. This sets a
breakpoint on the first instruction of the function. PowerPC uses
Global Entry Points (GEP) and Local Entry Points (LEP). The first
instruction in the function is the GEP. The GEP sets up register
r2 before reaching the LEP. When the function is called with func() the
function is entered via the LEP and the test fails because GDB does not
see the breakpoint on the GEP. However, if the function is called via a
function pointer, execution begins at the GEP as the test expects.
Currently finish-reverse-bkpt.exp uses source file finish-reverse.c and
next-reverse-bpkt-over-sr.exp uses source file step-reverse.c A new
source file was created for tests finish-reverse-bkpt.exp and
next-reverse-bkpt-over-sr.exp. The new files use the new function
pointer method to call the functions so the tests will work correctly on
both PowerPC with a GEP and LEP as well as on other systems. The GEP is
the same as the LEP on non PowerPC systems.
The expect files were changed to use the new source files and to set the
initial break point for the rest of the test on the function pointer call
for the function.

Add name canonicalization for C
PR symtab/29105 shows a number of situations where symbol lookup can
result in the expansion of too many CUs.
What happens is that lookup_signed_typename will try to look up a type
like "signed int". In cooked_index_functions::expand_symtabs_matching,
when looping over languages, the C++ case will canonicalize this type
name to be "int" instead. Then this method will proceed to expand
every CU that has an entry for "int" -- i.e., nearly all of them. A
crucial component of this is that the caller, objfile::lookup_symbol,
does not do this canonicalization, so when it tries to find the symbol
for "signed int", it fails -- causing the loop to continue.
This patch fixes the problem by introducing name canonicalization for
C. The idea here is that, by making C and C++ agree on the canonical
name when a symbol name can have multiple spellings, we avoid the bad
behavior in objfile::lookup_symbol (and any other such code -- I don't
know if there is any).
Unlike C++, C only has a few situations where canonicalization is
needed. And, in particular, due to the lack of overloading (thus
avoiding any issues in linespec) and due to the way c-exp.y works, I
think that no canonicalization is needed during symbol lookup -- only
during symtab construction. This explains why lookup_name_info is not
touched.
The stabs reader is modified on a "best effort" basis.
The DWARF reader needed one small tweak in dwarf2_name to avoid a
regression in dw2-unusual-field-names.exp. I think this is adequately
explained by the comment, but basically this is a scenario that should
not occur in real code, only the gdb test suite.
lookup_signed_typename is simplified. It used to search for two
different type names, but now gdb can search just for the canonical
form.
gdb.dwarf2/enum-type.exp needed a small tweak, because the
canonicalizer turns "unsigned integer" into "unsigned int integer".
It seems better here to use the correct C type name.

gdb/dwarf: add some QUIT macros
While testing the fix for PR 29105, I noticed I couldn't ctrl-C my way
out of GDB expanding many symtabs. GDB was busy in a loop in
cooked_index_functions::expand_symtabs_matching. Add a QUIT there. I
also happened to see a spot in
cooked_index_functions::expand_matching_symbols where a QUIT would be
useful too, since we iterate over a potentially big number of index
entries and expand CUs in the loop. Add one there too.

gdb: remove prune_threads in thread_db_target::update_thread_list
Pedro mentioned that this prune_threads call in
thread_db_target::update_thread_list was not needed, and it was probably
an oversight to leave it there in the work following commit e8032dde10b
("Push pruning old threads down to the target"). That commit changed
the "find new threads" target operation to "update thread list", making
the target responsible of adding new threads and removing exited
threads, rather than just adding new threads. Commit e8032dde10b moved
the prune_threads calls previously done in common code into each
target's update_thread_list method, in order to keep the existing
behavior, which is why this prune_threads call ended up there.
In the mean time, the linux-nat target was taught to update_thread_list,
and thread_db_target::update_thread_list defers to that for any live
inferior, so the prune_threads call is not needed there. Otherwise, the
thread_db_target::update_thread_list implementation based on
td_ta_thr_iter_p only knows how to add new threads, not how to delete
exited threads, but that is only used for non-live inferiors, where
threads can't exit anyway. So the prune_threads call is not needed for
that case either.

Avoid timeouts in gdb.compile
PR compile/29541 points out that some of the C++ tests in gdb.compile
will time out when the glibc debuginfo is installed. This was
interfering with my hacking on gdb by making test runs extremely long,
so I looked into it.
Internally the bug seems to be that gdb tries to convert multiple
symbols named "var" via the compiler interface; one such symbol (I
didn't track it down too far) causes the C++ compiler plugin to crash.
Unfortunately, the crash is reported as a timeout, as the gdb side of
the plugin simply hangs. This seems like a bug in the plugin RPC
mechanism and, worse, apparently when I wrote this stuff I didn't
really consider error reporting very much at all, so gdb can't really
detect failures in the first place.
Anyway... this patch works around the timeout by compiling a simple
test that should provoke this bug, and then using "untested" if it
notices a GCC crash.

x86: rework of match_template()'s suffix checking
(Ab)using i386_opcode_modifier for this has been overkill, as the logic

double format, but the actual long double float format is:

like so:
...
$ gcc -mlittle test.c -c -g

and running gdb:

section-select: Implement a prefix-tree
Now that we have a list of potentially matching sections per wild
statement we can actually pre-fill that one by going once over all input
sections and match their names against a prefix-tree that points to the
potentially matching wild statements.
So instead of looking at all sections names for each glob for each wild
statement we now look at the sections only once and then only check
against those globs that have a possibility of a match at all (usually
only one or two).
This pushes the whole section selection off the profiles.

This resets all section matches before updating for newly created
sections (i.e. completely rebuilds the matches).

section-select: Lazily resolve section matches
and remember the results. Before this the order of section matching
is basically:
foreach script-wild-stmt S
foreach pattern P of S
foreach inputfile I
foreach section S of I
match S against P
if match: do action for S
And this process is done three or four times: for each top-level call to
walk_wild() or wild(), that is: check_input_sections, lang_gc_sections,
lang_find_relro_sections and of course map_input_to_output_sections.
So we iterate over all sections of all files many many times (for each
glob). Reality is a bit more complicated (some special glob types don't
need the full iteration over all sections, only over all files), but
that's the gist of it.
For future work this shuffles the whole ordering a bit by lazily doing
the matching process and memoizing results, trading a little memory for
a 75% speedup of the overall section selection process.
This lazy resolution introduces a problem with sections added late
that's corrected in the next patch.
